“The original ‘GLOW’ in the ’80s … was a g—–n clown show f—ing parody of wrestling, with girls — most of them hadn’t even had wrestling backgrounds,” he said. “It was bad comedy, bad scripted bulls—. When I first saw it, my head exploded.”

“I despised the thought of it,” Cornette concluded. “Aw f—, it was so embarrassing.”

“Experience” co-host Brian Last really dug Netflix’s version, however, and he may have even convinced the hard-headed Cornette to give it a try. Listen to their conversation in the YouTube video above.

Created by Liz Flahive (“Nurse Jackie) and Carly Mensch (“Orange is the New Black”), Netflix’s “GLOW” is inspired by the ’80s show “GLOW: Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling,” a weekly syndicated series that combined on-stage wrestling with sketch comedy. Former GLOW wrestler Ursula Hayden, who now currently owns the company, is credited as a producer and story consultant.

15 Totally Tubular '80s Moments in Netflix's 'GLOW' (Photos)

Netflix's "GLOW" is back and more '80s than ever. Now that the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling have their own show, all the fashion and culture from the era is bigger than ever. Scroll on for our favorite totally '80s moments from the dramedy.

"GLOW" Season 2 premieres Friday, June 29 on Netflix.

Leg warmers are one of the most iconic fashion trends to come out of the 1980s. Largely popularized by "Flashdance," they became a staple of ladies workout wear.

In the pilot episode, Ruth (Alison Brie) and Debbie (Betty Gilpin) meet up for a Jazzercise class. The aerobic dance workout was invented by Judi Sheppard Missett in 1969, but grew in popularity when Missett moved from Chicago to California and began teaching in the city of Carlsbad. Pure-play aerobics were also popularized in the '80s by workout icons like Richard Simmons and Jane Fonda.

One of the best parts of the '80s was video games. On a visit to their producer's house, the ladies of GLOW find that he owns several arcade games, like Crystal Castles and Asteroids.

Not every trend of the '80s is a good one. During their stay at a run-down hotel in Van Nuys, some of the girls get their tan on. Of course, now we know that lathering up with baby oil and frying in the sun leads to skin cancer.

Also at Sebastian "Bash" Howard's house party, he has a house robot. These blasted into popularity after "Star Wars," but they went for a steep price. Some went for north of $6,000.

Old school burger joints might be more of a '50s icon, but the burger stand is an iconic part of L.A. nostalgia. The girls routinely eat at a diner near their wrestling ring.

Ruth drives around an old Volkswagen Derby throughout the show. L.A. is known for its car culture -- Ruth stays true to that by driving all over the vast city, from the valley to Malibu.

Rollerskating is an iconic part of '80s pop culture. In one episode, the ladies head to Moonlight Rollerway in Glendale. "I don't trust shoes that move," says Sheila the She Wolf (Gayle Rankin). We feel you, Sheila. We feel you.

One thing we remember the most about '80s movies are the epic prom dresses. The GLOW crew definitely channels that when they head to a fancy fundraiser in the penultimate episode of Season 1.

As we mentioned before, Jazzercise and aerobics were a huge part of '80s lifestyle. The workout gear is almost just as great as the going out clothes. These workout onesies are just one example.

Let's be honest, the '80s would be nothing without crazy big hair. Debbie rocks a poofy 'do here at her first-ever wrestling match, where she realizes that wrestling is just like a soap opera.

We learned a lot about '80s A.V. equipment in another Netflix series nostalgic for the '80s ("Stranger Things"). In "GLOW," the team is forced to use a karaoke machine and a keyboard for their first show.

Again, not all '80s trends were good ones. Smoking used to be way more popular than it is today. It took until 1995 for a statewide smoking ban to hit California, which was the first state to adopt such a policy.

Netflix

You can't do a show about the '80s without a slew of classic one-hit-wonders from the decade. The "GLOW" soundtrack doesn't disappoint, and features classic songs like Quiet Riot's "Cum on Feel the Noise," Belinda Carlisle's "Heaven Is a Place on Earth" and Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger," among many more. Oh -- we can't forget Season 2's nod to "Flashdance," either.

Netflix

We can't leave out the wrestling itself. The original "GLOW" premiered in 1986 and featured crazy costumes, larger-than-life personas and big hair as portrayed in the Netflix series.

From Jazzercise to giant hair, the critically acclaimed series is nostalgic for 1980s Los Angeles
